remarkable for size. Fig*. 4 is inserted to give an ides 
of the crenulations between the striae. 
CONUS concinmis.— 1 TAB. CCCII.—Fig.2. 
Spec. Char. Fusiform, angular in the middle, 
spire ornamented with knobs and granulated 
striae ; base produced, sulcated. 
This elegant Cone is nearly three times as long as 
broad, the spire occupying little more than one third of 
tiie length ; both ends are pointed ; the sulci upon the 
base are deepest towards the point. 
From Highgate Hill, and Barton ; not very common. 
TAB. CCCIi.— Fig. 1. 
As it is not likely we shall again have so good an 
opportunity of searching the clay of Highgate Hill, as 
was afforded by cutting the road through it in 1811, 
I have thought it adviseable to figure a very much 
corroded and imperfect Cone found there, without being 
able to give a satisfactory character or name to it. It 
is not impossible that it may be a very large specimen 
of C. concinnus, but the canal around the spire, and its 
shorter form, render it doubtful : there are obscure in- 
dications of tubercles or large crenulations upon the 
spire : I cannot refer it to any species described by 
Lamarck or Brocchi. 
CONUS scabriculus.™ TAB. CCCIIL 
Spec. Char. Fusiform, rather short, striated ; 
striae elevated, toothed. 
var. fi, elongated, stria? numerous, minutely 
toothed, (fig-. 2.) 
Syn. Conus scabriculus. Brander , 21. 
The greatest width in a is rather less than half the 
length : in var. (3 it is only one-third : the striae vary 
from 7 to 24 ; when few, each consists of a series of 
large, sharp, compressed teeth, in proportion as they 
are fewer they are more elevated, and the teeth are 
smaller ; the last whorl is rather swelled out of the 
regular conical form ; the aperture is longer than the 
spire ; the right lip is sometimes plaited at the edge, 
opposite the teeth in the striae, and the left lip is not 
visible. 
A common shell at Barton. I am indebted to Miss 
Salisbury for several specimens.
